Hi, I am new to lvm2. I am looking at the lvm2 code primarily to understand how snapshots are taken. When I debugged, i found that in addition to the COW LV, a LV named 'snapshot0' is also created. Why is this LV created? Thanks in advance Nallammai.S _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
